1 Efficient Thresholding Technique Using Neural Networks (NN) Mohammed Jahirul Islam November
2 Presentation Outline Image Thresholding Artificial Neural Network (ANN) NN-based Thresholding technique Training Data Preparation, Testing NN Observations and Criticisms Proposed Technique Flowchart Simulation Results Conclusions and Future Work 2
3 Image Thresholding Digital color image is represented by 24-bit (16- millions levels) or gray scale image (scanned document) by 8-bit (256 levels) The analysis of an image with that many levels might require complicated techniques and higher computational cost Reduce the image to a more manageable number of grey levels, usually two levels (binary image), and at the same time retain all necessary features of the original image Thresholding is a way of solving this issue 3
4 Image Thresholding Two broad categories Global thresholding- Picks one value for the entire image Local thresholding- different value for different pixels, adapative Selection of appropriate thresholding technique is application dependent. Document Analysis is one of the important applications 4
5 Document Analysis Speech is a sign system that is more natural than writing to humans Writing is considered to have made possible much of culture and civilization. Printed documents, such as newspapers, magazines and books, and in handwritten matter, such as found in notebooks and personal letters. Document Analysis System converts a paper-based document into computerized form 5
6 Document Analysis System (DAS) Recognize characters of a text block and identify non-text regions such as charts and images Advantages includes efficient document updates and revisions Most of the successes have come in constrained domains such as postal addresses, bank checks, and census forms. 6
7 Principles Stages of DAS Document acquisition Pre-processing Binarization Page Segmentation (Layout Analysis) Character Recognition or Object Recognition Post-Processing Processing 7
8 Limitation of DAS Giant steps have been made in the last decade, both in terms of technological supports and in software products to provide computerized DAS. Character recognition (OCR) contributes to this progress by providing techniques to convert large volumes of data automatically. There are so many papers and patents advertising recognition rates as high as 99.99%; this gives the impression that automation problems seem to have been solved. What if the document is composite and degraded? 8
9 Challenges in DAS Performance problems subsist on composite paper documents with non-uniform background. Non-uniform background is caused by watermarks and complex patterns used in printing security documents Success of converting documents with complex backgrounds depends on Eliminating background by thresholding Correctness of page segmentation Main challenge is Image Binarization 9
10 Literature Review Performance of thresholding depends on the type of document, image illumination, contrast and complexity of the background Trier and Jain [1] compared several local and global thresholding technique and their respective character recognition rate. Niblack [2] local adaptive method produced the best Sahoo et al. [3] compared 20 global thresholding methods Otsu [4] outperformed all other methods All thresholding techniques do not perform well on all images Most make some assumptions about the images to be used which limit their performance to such images 10
11 Literature Review Yasser [5] developed NN-based technique for thresholding composite digitized documents with complex background Passports, bank cheques, ID cards and images from magazines and scanned synthetic ti images printed on complex background What is Artificial Neural Network? 11
12 Artificial Neural Network (ANN) Powerful data modeling tool, represents complex input/ output relationships Resembles human brain in acquiring knowledge through learning and storing knowledge within inter-neuron connection strength, Weights. 12
13 How does ANN work? ANNs area adjusted or trained so that a particular input leads to a specific desired or target output 13
14 Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) Most common NN model Uses supervised training i methods to train the NN 14
15 NN and Thresholding Very few researchers have investigated the use of NNs in image thresholding. Koker and Sari [8] use NNs to automatically select a global threshold value for an industrial i vision i system Papamarkos [9] produced a local thresholding method using the Kohonen SOM classifier to define the two bi-level classes in order to reduce the character blurring effect in blurred documents 15
16 NN-based Thresholding Poor contrast, non-uniform illumination, complex background patterns and non uniformly distributed background is a challenging problem in thresholding of document images NN-based algorithm uses statistical ti ti and textural t feature measures to obtain a feature vector from a pixel window of size (2n+1) x (2n+1), where n>=1 Uses MLP NN to train the network and adjust the weights and then classify each pixel in the image 16
17 Statistical Texture Measures Statistical textural measures are useful in characterizing the set of neighborhood values of pixels. Features: Pixel value Mean Standard Deviation Smoothness Entropy Skewness Kurtosis Uniformity 17
18 Training Data Preparation Load an image Select a pixel in the image Click on object or background button for the selected pixel All the 8 features are calculated Save it in a file as a feature vector Repeat the process for random points and another image 18
19 Training Data Preparation 19
20 Training the Network Input Layer- No. of features in a feature vector, for example 8 Hidden layer- (Input+output)*2/3 t t)*2/3 Output layer- 1 (Object 0, background 1) Weights=(Input*Hidden)+Hidden units Use supervised training methods to train the NN Training sequence involves forward phase and backward phase Forward phase estimates the error and backward phase modifies the weights to decrease the error 20
21 Testing the NN Weights are used in classification phase Image data feature vectors are extracted from each pixel and its neighborhoods, fed into the network that performs classification and assign a number 0 or 1 21
22 Observations and Criticisms Feature vector (all the 8 features) inputs to the NN More features used slower the feature extraction process Window size affects the speed, larger the window size slower the feature extraction process Window size 5x5 used in this case Should we use all 8 features? Is it possible to have a combination with minimum features and higher recognition rate? If so, What combination? 22
23 Objectives of the Research Reduce the number of features and search the combination that is minimum but provide the same or better recognition rate Validate the combination by testing on more images Propose an efficient thresholding technique using the combination of minimum features 23
24 Features Combination How many different combinations possible using 8 features? C = C 4 = 70 8 C = 8 C = 56 C C 6 7 = = C C 3 2 = = C7 Total: 255 combination without repetition = 8 = 1, 2,3, 4,5, 6, 7 1, 2,3, 4,5, 6,8 1, 2,3, 4,5, 7,8 1, 2,3, 4, 6, 7,8 1, 2,3,5, 6, 7,8 1, 2, 4,5, 6, 7,8 1,3, 4,5, 6, 7,8 2,3, 4,5, 6, 7, 8 24
25 Flowchart of the Proposed Process 25
26 Observations of the Proposed Process Different feature vector have different weights 255 features combination, 255 Weight vector For each document image 255 OCR output, 255 error rate Compare the error rate and picks up the best combination Repeat the same process for simple, moderate and complex background document images Select the minimum feature combination with high recognition rate 26

35 Simulation Results- 1,2,5 Health is defined as a state of complete physical, social and mental well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. Within the context of health promotion, health has been considered less as an abstract state and more as a means to an end which can be expressed in functional terms as a resource which permits people p to lead an individually, socially and economically productive life. Health is a resource for everyday life, not the object of living, it is a positive concept emphasizing social and personal resources as well as physical capabilities. Segmented OCR Output 35
36 Simulation Results- 1,2,5 Segmented The Underground Railroad in the days before and during the American civil War, Ontario served as the final stop on the underground railroad, a network of secret routes and safe houses that allowed enslaved African- Americans to escape to freedom in Canada. Walk in the footsteps of history along the African Canadian Heritage Route from Windsor, where you can visit John Freeman Walls' 1846 log cabin, that served as a terminal on the Underground Railroad. For a further window into'the past, walk among the artifacts and images at the Amherstburg's North American Black Historical Museum, stroll the streets of North Buxton, Canada's first Black settlement - home to many historic buildings and a museum that recounts the area's proud story of early growth and self-sufficiency sufficiency. OCR 36
37 Simulation Results- 1,2,5 Document Image OCR Facts about Cats The nose pad of a cat is ridged in a pattern that is unique, just like the fingerprint of a human. There are more than 500 million domestic cats in the world, with 33 different breeds. A cat s heart beats twice as fast as a human heart, at 110 to 140 beats per minuts. 25 percent of cat owners blow dry their cats hair after a bath. The largest cat breed is the Ragdoll. Males weigh twelve to twenty pounds, with females weighing ten to fifteen pounds. The smallest cat breed is the singapura. Males weigh about six pounds while females weigh about four pounds.
